The Qualtrics Pulse survey, which analyses job satisfaction, also found that while 66% of respondents in the travel sector were happy with their work commute while a further 58% said they felt there was opportunity for job growth.

Some 62% of those in the travel sector were said to be pleased with their work life balance.

“While pay and benefits achieve low scores among workers, our Driver iQ analysis shows these are not the factors with the greatest impact on employee satisfaction in this sector. The behaviour of business leaders and achieving a work-life balance are the most influential in driving satisfaction and staff retention and this is where hotel and hospitality is getting it right.”

She added: “Understanding the key drivers to satisfaction and focusing on the areas with the greatest influence, hotels can drive greater employee engagement and this in turn will positively impact the guest experience.”
